    Rain-X are always good, but which one do you choose?
    I like the beam style, as they seem the best in snow.

    And the length does not matter, except to the ladies. Sometimes not even then.
    It is whatever best fits your windshield.

    And that does nothing for the blade.
    Once it ices up, what you are using for washer fluid does little.

    good de icer wont build up that fast. i used prestone yellowish de icer for years running across ny on 90. keep window hot with heat and good de icer. bam thats money. if you own your own truck, then get a hot water heater for your washer bottle.

    I guess it would if you had a 3.6 inch windshield.

    What part of 'whatever best fits' eludes you?
